Alberto Oromi, Plamen Lozanoz, Fran Otero & Jesus Zamorano (Spain)

This Hawkins 2013 has been thoroughly prepared. Even Jesus (jigfisher) was here! Alberto prepared a jig especially for Black Marlin/Hawkins, as you can see it on the picture. A flat sea, no current, no drift; therefore: little activity. That was a bit of disappointment for these jiggers! However 8 billfish: 8 sailfish captured including 2 released! The previous club record was of 7 billfish. We must notice that the divine Jesus’ hands caught a sailfish jigging. A first of its kind once again. Some yellowfin tunas and wahoos are caught trolling. Then Alberto catches a dogtooth tuna of 62kg, jigging, on his special jig Black Marlin/Hawkins. This is the 192th doggy over 50kg caught aboard Black Marlin. We must wait until the last night to find a normal jigging activity again. A lot of small trevallies, jobfish, seriolas, red snappers, red coral trouts, moon tails sea bass are caught. Hey,there still is another 89h session on Hawkins left, and the sea should be calmless!
